Course description
The growing amount of transport data that are available passively and actively from a variety of systems and sensors requires increasing knowledge of quantitative methods for descriptive and predictive purposes. Moreover, the location information in these data is increasingly important because the spatial context plays an essential role in decision making and problem solving in a number of transport applications. Accordingly, this course provides the necessary knowledge of regression techniques, Geographic Information Systems, and data mining, with emphasis on the theory as well as the practice of big data analytics.
